Happy Monday folks!! Today is my turn to post on the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' blog and I have a card to share with you. I made this card for a friend that recently spoiled me with a lunch date at my favorite Thai restaurant. I wanted to let my friend know how much I appreciate her and this is the card I came up with for that.

Hello fellow paper crafters and thanks for stopping by today!! I have a card to share with you for my dt post over at 3 Girl JAM. I have been slowly growing my collection of alcohol markers and decided to keep working on my coloring skills - alas it will be a long journey to feel like I am getting anywhere close to the great skills I see out in blogland :-) I love the color purple and used a few delicious 3 Girl JAM purple products to compliment my image.

Happy Monday my fellow crafters!! It is my turn to post on the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' blog and I am here today to share a gift bag I decorated for a baby shower I recently attended. The shower was for a baby boy so I thought it would be fun to use the newer PPPR "Sail Away" cutting files set. I used the boat file and cut it out large enough to decorate my gift bag.

﻿

This went together so quickly and I just love using my cut files to jazz up and personalize gift bags. I created an embellishment using some 3 Girl JAM ribbon from the "red, white and blue bundle" along with a brass button I had in my stash and a bit of hot glue. I added some doodling with my white gel pen and a red metallic skittle. Thanks for stopping by today!!
